Helen takes a lease on a studio for eighteen months, with instalments due January 2015, June 2015 and January 2016. A week after the June instalment was due, it was discovered that the premises have to be closed for fumigation and will have to remain sealed for six months for the chemicals to work on the infestation of rats. This means that Helen cannot run her piano teaching classes as her piano and recital music are locked in the premises. She is forced to cancel all her classes. Khaled refuses to accept this and says he will arrive as planned on 6th June as he wants to work on his special recital with her. Helen arranges to get a piano delivered to her home and a copy of the recital music, but on the day Khaled is run over by a car and cannot attend the class.

Advise Helen.
